Based on the provided reference, Enscape materials can be added and accessed directly within SketchUp via the Enscape Material Editor. The Material Editor also loads any additional information you had previously, such as linked displacement maps and roughness maps.
While the provided reference snippet is brief, the process generally involves the following:
- Open the Enscape Material Editor: The reference suggests the editor is accessible directly within SketchUp. Look for an Enscape toolbar or menu within SketchUp and find the "Material Editor" option.
- Select or Create a Material: You'll likely be able to either select an existing SketchUp material to modify with Enscape properties or create a new material within the Enscape Material Editor.
- Apply Enscape Properties: Within the Enscape Material Editor, you can then add Enscape-specific properties to the material. This includes features like:
- Displacement maps
- Roughness maps
- Other material characteristics that influence how the material renders in Enscape (e.g., transparency, reflectivity, etc.).
- Link Textures: The editor allows linking to texture maps (like displacement and roughness) to further refine the material's appearance.
In essence, you use the Enscape Material Editor within SketchUp to enhance SketchUp materials with Enscape's advanced rendering capabilities, allowing for more realistic visualizations.
